Animal Crossing: Red Curse 4: Red Vaccation

It was that time of year again, vaccation time. The time of year which hundreds of kids and adults all over the country looked foward to as a sweet time of summer where all fun could be had and all great activities were to be had fun with including sitting on the beach, ice cream, theme park, or just staying at home and enjoying the hot sunny summer weather. It could be the perfect time of year for almost anyone, no matter what they tried to do it was just great. Everyone in my family just loved the summer vaccation time, no matter who everyone else loved it too. And so it was that time of the year again when we set out on our vaccation journey to Long Beach California on a roadtrip from our house in Montana to visit our relations, to lounge on the beach, and generally just to have fun and relax and maybe eat an ice cream?

We drove to Long beach. It took a long time but we arrived at their apartment the next morning, and everyone was excited to play, to have fun, and maybe to visit the other famous california sites such as Golden Gate Bridge, Hollywood, Disneyland California, and other such sites and attacrions that were the most attactive parts of anyone who was visiting California, in the hot long sunny summer days.

"What do you want to do first Kacey, visit the Grand Canyon or go to Hollywood? Or perhaps just chill at the apartment here for a day? It has a pool." My dad asked.

"Just chill here at the pool."

Little did I know, that not far from here sinister things were taking place that were going to make my vaccation a lot less sweet.

AREA 51, THE DESERT, 1600 hours

"Here it is general. This is the catridge of the game animal crossing that causes the Red Curse. It was sent to us by a family that found it. Fortunately they killed the monster." Two soldiers were walking through Area 51, the place where the government stored its most secret items and dangerous relics.

"Yes thank you Leiutenant, you are dismissed. I will take it from here." Said General Tin, as he saluted to the other soldier. "We need this game for Air Force puproses."

"Ok Sir, as you order." The Leiutenant quickly pressed a button, and the glass slid open, and he took out the game and handed it to General Tin, who saluted. The general took the game back to his office, and once he was finally in private, he gave a deep chuckling laugh.

Quickly, he crossed over to the closet, and pulled out the white pointed hood he kept in there. Putting on the hood, he went to the phone dialled the number he had been given. When it answered, he spoke into it in a hushed whisper so nobody could overhear.

"Hello, is that KKK headquarters? Yes, it's me, Secret Operative General Tin. I have successfully infiltrated the base and I have stolen the cursed animal crossing cartidge as you instructed."

"Good, good." Came an deep voice over the phone. "That is excellent work."

"What do you wish for me to do with it?"

"Hmm. The girl who defeated this evil three times before was Samoan was she not? It would be in our racist interest to send the game back to her, we shall see if she can defeat the evil a fourth time. Ha ha ha."

"Indeeed, you orders are my command. I shall do it immediately."

General Tin put down the phone and took off his pointy hood. He then got out an envelope, and put in the adress of the girl who had give the cartidge - Kacey Bones. Then he walked to the base post office, and posted the envelope. Just as he walked out of the door, he was spotted to the door by two military policemen, who had the leiutenant with him.

"There he is! That's the general who stole the cartidge!"

"Come with us sir you're under arrest!" They shouted.

"You'll never take me down motherfuckers." General Tin took his pistol out and shot the two military policemen. The Leiutenant rolled across the tarmac and pulled his own gun out. He fired a shot but it missed and General Tin jumped away. Quickly, he sprinted to a tower of barrells. and began to climb. A barrel exploaded as he was fired at, and fuel began to leak out. Suddenly, there was a whoosh, and the fire smashed into a vast explosion.

"I did it for Racism!" Yelled General Tin as the fire engulfed him. He was vapourized.

“Quick he was posting the parcel!” The soldiers ran inside the postal office, guns ready to retrieve the cursed catridge. But it was too late, as when they ran in one door, they saw the mail truck pulling away from the cargo hatch at the back of the office, and disappearing into the desert sunset.

“We can stop the truck.” Yelled one military police officer.

“Give it up kid.” Said the other sadly. “That parcels in the hands of the United States Postal Service now. And may we all pray to God for the wellbeing of that poor poor cursed girl – she’s going to need all the help she can get.”

CALIFORNIA – 6 Days Later

I woke up in the morning. It was exciting – a brand new day of excitement and fun to live in in the view of the hot Californian sun. I couldn’t wait to get started. Just then there was a knock at my door. It was my father.

“Kacey? This package just came for you.”

“Oh thanks that’s exciting.” I took the package and ripped it open, but just as I did I gasped in terror. It was the Nintendo Switch Catridge – the one that had caused the RED CURSE. It was Animal Crossing, and sure enough it said Red Curse on the front as a subtitle. It had returned it to me. How was this possible? Hadn’t we sent the catridge to be studied and destroyed at a secret facility with the US Government? How had this evil device escaped from their captivity?

Quickly I ran downstairs and said to my father.

“I must borrow my cousins Nintendo Switch for the day?”

“But Kacey, today we’re going to see the Hollywood sign, you can’t just sit at home and play Nintendo switch all day.

“But I argued with my father, until he finally gave in. My cousin lent me his switch, and my whole family drove off in the car to see the Hollywood sign. All of a sudden I was alone in that resort with the cursed copy of animal crossing – things had suddenly got a whole lot spookier.

I booted up the switch and I put in the cartridge. Suddenly, I saw a menu item pop up. It said “Hide and Seek mode”. I opened my old town, and sure enough my character was counting down, getting ready to play hide and seek with all the villagers. I counted down to 0 then I got ready to go and begin my hunt. I ran around the town, finding townfolks in various hidden locations, until suddenly I got to a location on the end of the village where there was a house I had never seen before. It was a big mansion, like the White House in Washington DC except it was made of Red Bricks. A sign said “The Red House.”.

I clicked on the door, and it opened. There he was inside. The famous Red creature, from the previous 3 Animal Crossing Red Curse stories. It was a man, but with no skin, except for his lips.

“What do you fucking want?” I growled.

“Time to ruin your vacation bitch.” He laughed.

“Will this shitting curse never break? Will you never stop helling attracking me?”

“Hahaha time to attack. You motherfucking better run.”

Suddenly the number 10, written in blood appeared in the blood on the screen. Suddenly it changed into 9. Oh my god, it was a countdown. Like the the appearance of the Hide and Seek game. As it changed to 8, I screamed, and jumped to the Switch. Time to pull the plug. I unplugged the switch, but as I did so I accidently knocked the switch out of its holder and I saw on the screen the countdown was continuing. It was down to 5 now.

Quickly I jumped to my feet and sprinted to the exit. I only had seconds to escape. I pulled open the door to the balcony. Just as I jumped off the edge of the balcony, I heard a huge explosion in my back. I was hit by an exploading shockwave of blood as I fell from the balcony. I smashed into the pool water with a perfect dive as the blood wave impacted, but I was protected by the water. I surface and I saw the entire resort was covered in blood. On my balcony where a waterfall of blood and organs was coming from, I saw the Red Man.

“Don’t run from me bitch.”

“Fuck you bastard.” I swam over to the side of the pool, but it was slick with blood. Suddenly, the red man jumped down, and sprinted towards me. I jumped out of the pool and ran for the door.

I ran inside into the dining hall buffet. Somehow it was empty. I needed to find a phone and call for help.

“I’m gonna kill you fucker.” Screamed the Red Man as he burst into the buffet hall after me. Thinking quickly, I dived behind one of the rows of the food tables, to allow me to hide.

“Where are you bitch?” He yelled. Quickly I ran down the aisle on my hands and knees. Suddenly I heard him jump on the table above me as he found me with an evil screech.

“Taste soup bitch!” I yelled suddenly, grabbing the nearest hot box of soup, and tossing it over the red man. He screamed in burning pain. I jumped onto the table opposite him.

“Fuck you cunt.” He pulled a large steak knife from the table underneath him. As he jumped over to my table, I began to run down the long table, jumping over different foods. He slashed the steak knife after me. Quickly I leant down and grabbed a lobster from the steam box. I turned around just as he made a deadly slash against me with the steak knife. I parried the thrust using the lobsters claws. He made another stoke, and it cut through the lobsters head, which spun off. I leapt away, and thrust out a tray of mashed potatoes. The Red Man trod into it, and slipped in the creamy mashed potatoes. He fell backwards with a yell. I used his distraction to run outside.

Outside the front of the building, I saw a cop car. It was empty, but the back window was open. I sprinted towards it, and swan dived through the open window. I grabbed the shotgun from the rack, and turned around. The Red Man was nowhere to be seen.

“Guns don’t work on me whore.” He screamed as he jumped from somewhere above and landed with a thump on the roof of the car. I pulled the trigger and bullets exploaded out of the shotgun, exploading the roof off the car. The piece of metal flew off, and the the Red Man was thrown away. I jumped out of the wrecked car, and took shelter behind an icecream van.

A woman was walking behind the street with a baby carriage. The Red Man grinned evilly, and laughing he jumped out to attack. I only had one chance to save them. I took the shotgun and fired, and hit the wheel of the baby carriage, which exploaded and went spinning. The carriage span away, into the open doors of a nearby building. The woman gasped in relief as she saw it was labelled Kintergarten. The Baby was safe.

“You’re no fun.” Screamed the Red Man.

“Bitch shut your mouth.” I fired the shotgun straight at the Red Man. He exploaded. The arms and legs went flying as another tidal wave of blood hit everything. The woman gasped in relief as the attacker was finally destroyed.

“It’s over.” I whispered. Or - - - was it? Suddenly I realized the game was still around. The demon could always respawn whenever anyone played evil game. Quickly I ran upstairs back to our holiday apartment. But there was the switch. Inside the switch, the game was gone! I ran to the window, which was open and flapping in the wind.

Down in the street, I saw a mysterious figure in a black suit and a black mask getting into the car with tinted windows. When he saw me, he gave a mocking wave, and pointed to the game he held in his hand.

“We’ll see you again very soon Kacey Bones. Very soon indeed.” He got into the car, and slammed the door shut. I aimed a shot with the shotgun, and fired, but the car was already speeding away. As I looked at the carnage around me, I began to get a sinking feeling that my vacation was over – but my curse was only just beginning.
